Russ Vought, the architect of the illegal budgetary actions of the Trump admin, responsible for illegally gutting many agencies, is testifying before the Senate on the president's budget request. This will be a rare opportunity for Dems to question him. I'll be live posting in this thread.

Suggested rewrites for @reuters.com :
-Can the U.S. legally kills 100s of school children and sink another countries Navy without declaring war?

Wait. Is listening to Crue bad? 😂📣💥🎸
<taps mic> Will the job creators please stand up? Anyone? How’s that SB21 doing these days, Conoco and friends?
This is why Alaska will always and for-never have nice things.
You jest. But I saw puffy clouds last week. And as a growing sign of daily convection, the Eagle River soaring humans have been increasing lately.
Bannon referred to Orban as "Trump before Trump."
Well, Orban is gone. MAGA is next.

“I don’t read / listen/ watch the news”.
Uh huh. Hey citizen, how about you check in a bit and participate in this democracy experiment?
“But it’s so biased!”
